Here's an interesting article a friend of mine I went to HS with (who is a nurse) shared on Facebook:

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2...tbreak-qa.html

I've been following this thread quietly in the bushes... I remember watching Outbreak the movie several times when I was younger... I was worried about it for years... Never happened...

Fast forward to today. I don't have cable tv, I don't, and haven't watched the news or read a news paper in years. 90% of the time it's all doom and gloom. I was almost completely oblivious to this Ebola news... Not so much anymore when it pops up on my favorite 5th gen Camaro forum, and now from a nurse friend I've known for years... Damn...

Now I'm sh**ing chickens, because (I believe?) everyone that has had it has come through DFW Airport, which means that several airport personnel have probably come into contact with it, but are not experiencing "symptoms" so they have not tried to seek medical attention, which means they could potentially be spreading it around to people flying all over the country. My best friends step-mother is flying in and out of DFW at least once a month, and here to visit the family once every month or two... You watch, it's going to start popping up in random places because of people flying out of DFW....

Another friend I just started ranting to that said it wouldn't come here just sent me this:

Yup, my s**t-hole state capital city. Less than 4 hours away from me... IMO Oregon is absolutely not prepared for this in any way! If there was any sort of suspicion they should have tested that patients blood regardless of symptoms being confirmed "Ebola like or not", the patient recently traveled to/from Africa. TEST IT!

DUH!

I swear these people running the show are retarded! This is why I quit watching the news and reading the papers, aside from all the doom and gloom, nothing ever goes right, someone is always killing someone else, blah blah blah...

Steve Dallas, I thought you were a little overboard-cooky when I started reading this, but you're 100% right. This needs to be paid 100% attention to YESTERDAY! I can't believe they're letting these people fly around all willy nilly. Use some GD COMMON SENSE people!!!
